Abstract
|
|
|
|
In this report, we introduce a case of surgical treatment for Stensen’s duct stone with ultrasonography. A 49-year-old female patient presented with postprandial swelling in the right infraauricular lesion. Upon confirming the swelling as the Stensen’s duct stone on the computed tomography scan, the sialolith was surgically removed using the transcutaneous procedure. Using ultrasonography, we found the exact location of the stone and removed it without any facial nerve injury. The case clearly demonstrated that the Stensen’s duct stone canbe removed more easily and safely with ultrasonography.
